Barring unexpected delay, the
first new Arden Hills dorm will be
completed by Thanksgiving. The
second dorm is expected to follow
six weeks later.
This additional housing will
not, however, solve the present
shortage. Capacity of the two
dorms is around 270, and there
are 400 students now living on old
campus.
Director of Student Affairs
Mack Nettleton said Bethel hopes
to continue leasing the old cam-pus,
but will look for other alter-natives
if the US government
decides on eviction.
Nettleton is very pleased with
the design of the new buildings.
Each coed dorm is split into two
wings of three floors with about
24 people living on each floor.
The commons area between the
two wings will contain two
lounges—one with a fireplace—a
laundry room, a study area, a rec
room, and a kitchen.
The dorms will be air-conditioned
and carpeted. The
rooms will be sound-insulated
with a two-inch concrete slab over
the wood floors, and with in-sulation
between all stud walls.
Other grounds improvements
include an enlarged circle parking
lot and a new foot bridge on the
south lawn. The parking lot is still
being expanded. Parking is al-lowed
on the gravel-filled areas
which are being allowed to settle
until next summer when the area
will be blacktopped.
The footbridge was built by
Mack Nettleton and Paul Redin to
provide an alternative to walking
along the road.
Unlike the expedient bridge-building,
the new dorms have
been in planning and under con-struction
for a long time. On
January 6, 1977, a committee of
students and administrators met
with Cottle-Herman Architects to
discuss dorm plans.
The committee made a list of 14
features they would like to see in
the dorms, and presented it to the
architects. "I was very pleasantly
surprised," said Nettleton, "that
every single suggestion was in-corporated
into the blueprints."
Requests included installing a
storage locker for each room, and
suggestions for design of sinks,
bathrooms, and lighting place-ment.
Though the construction has
gone fairly well, an electricians'
and a pipe insulators' strike de-layed
progress. The pipe insula-tion,
though a seemingly minor
detail, had to be finished before
sheet-rocking could begin. These
delays have put the dorms four to
six weeks behind schedule.
Marilyn Starr and Bruce Kun-kel
are now designing strategies
for the move-in dates. Old cam-pus
residents are most likely to
first occupy the new dorms.
Since Bethel's housing phil-osophy
is to put freshmen in
dorms wherever possible, the
new dorms will be used ex-clusively
for freshmen in future
years.

With construction of the LRC
building's new annex, six weeks
behind schedule, Bethel students
will have to wait until January to
occupy it.
Level four, to be completed
before level three, according to
Dean Brushaber, will be divided
into two 60-person classrooms, a
temporary library and instructor's
offices. Each of the two class-rooms
will also be used for study
area in the evenings.
Level three will contain offices
of campus pastor, campus mini-stries,
public affairs and the
education department. The pre-sent
estimate for the entire pro-ject,
including landscaping, is set
at $850,000.
According to Dave Limner,
director of campus development,
the entire building will not be
ready for occupancy until
January, while the lower two
floors, containing the post office
area and coffee shop, will be rea-dy
for use much earlier.
Level one will house a 4000
square foot student lounge in
addition to the existing expanded
postal service. The second level
will expand seating for the coffee
shop and a dining room for
special events.
Bethel losing money over old campus lease conditions
by Jay Russell
"Bethel is losing over $8,000
per semester under the conditions
of the old campus lease with the
government," Dean' George
Brushaber announced last week
in an interview.
Under the conditions of the
lease, Bethel must pay for all
utilities including water, sewage,
electricity, oil and gas. Bethel is
also responsible for the security
and maintenance of the entire
campus, which involves snow re-moval
and upkeep of the lawn and
parking areas.
Another provision in the lease
is that either party may terminate
the lease with a 30-day eviction
notice. "It is highly unlikely,"
Brushaber assured, "that the
government would terminate the
lease, considering the legal pro-blems
involved with the Job
Corps program."
If all rooms are occupied, rental
income from students at old cam-pus
is $109,560, while Bethel's
operating expenses are estimated
at $118,363, resulting in a loss of
$8,803. "In effect, those students
not living on old campus are
subsidizing the old campus resi-dents,"
Dean Brushaber stated.
Operational costs for old cam-pus
include utilities expenses,
custodial upkeep;; custodial sup-plies,
laundry service, security
costs, insurance, and repair and
replacement costs for broken fix-tures.
Other costs include the salaries
for the resident directors, dorm
presidents and the R.A.'s. Busing
is another large expense, costing
about $26,000 for four months.
Explaining why Bethel chose to
lease old campus, Brushaber re-vealed
that "Bethel made a de-posit
on an apartment complex in
New Brighton, with the realtor
giving us the impression that the
owner had accepted our offer."
The announcement was then
made to the students that more
apartments would be available for
the fall term.
"We later discovered that the
owner had wanted more money,
so we were forced to cancel the
transaction," Brushaber stated.
The dean also stressed that "we
searched everywhere for another
apartment complex, but couldn't
find any that were suitable. The
purchase price was either too
high, or the buildings were in bad
shape physically."
Other temporary housing alter-natives
under consideration were
the Twin Cities arsenal north of
Bethel, the St. Paul Hotel, and
some of the other nearby colleges
• and hospitals.
With all of the problems in-volved
with finding a suitable
housing alternative, Brushaber
stated that "we were thrilled
when we' heard from the de-partment
of labor that our lease
on old campus would be ex-tended."
Zeke's Zetesis
Zeke and Zeus reveal column's future
A junior did not offer a hasty
response, but first spent a long
night of diligent research in the
LRC. The following morning with
beaming face he positively af-firmed
"It's a new word game
from Milton Bradley."
An experienced senior having
scratched his head, remarked
thoughtfully "The significance of
Zeke is yet to be determined, and
zetesis...it's Greek to me!"
Actually, Zeke and zetesis have
great significance. The historical
foundations of the name Zeke
have their roots in Greek mytho-logy.
Zekian scholars have de-bated
vehemently on this issue.
While they agree that Zeke is
directly related to the god Zeus,
they disagree concerning the pre-cise
identity of Zeke.
Liberal Zekian scholars believe
he was Zeus' third cousin, while
more conservative Zekian schol-ars
are convicted that Zeke was
Zeus' pet frog. (Rumor has it that
the Zekes even pulled an all-nighter
once discussing their ir-reconcilable
differences.)
Zekian scholars have also post-ed
the following options for the
contemporary significance of
cont. on page 7
by Rick Chapman
Zeke? Zetesis? What is the
meaning of such outrageous
terms? Members of the Bethel
community feel differently con-cerning
this question. A fresh and
green freshman inquired "What
manner of foolishness is this?"
A sophisticated sophomore in-dicated
his level of intelligence
while responding to the question
posed by the freshmen, " 'Tis wise
foolishness."
Student Affairs applauded
Applause is due to the Student Affairs office for improvements made
over the summer.
First, the Bethel lifestyle policy was revised to clarify the meaning of
two lines. A new sentence states, "Members of the college community
ar.e required to refrain from these practices." This was formerly
missing from the paragraph on alcohol, gambling and narcotics.
Additionally, in the following paragraph the word "expected" was
replaced by the more specific term "required."
Residents of new campus will beneift this winter from the new
handrails by the paths to the townhouses. Supported by the Senate and
the Clarion, the Student Affairs office took steps to install the rails.
The Welcome Week staff, led by Curt Gruber and Nancy Ahlberg,
started the year on a positive note with its highly organized and
creative planning. Thanks goes to these for the innovations.
Integrity in style
sought by new staff
A statement of the Clarion's editorial policy, though traditional and
necessary, poses a problem. While the paper's purpose changes little
from year to year, the editorial staff varies considerably.
Here we want to state more than just the ideals of a college news-paper.
We want to communicate a personality.
Regardless of how objectively a staff reports news, its personal at-titudes
will shine through in its editorials, its columns, and the variety
of news and features it prints. Hopefully we will make clear both our
policy and our personality.
Informing is the first duty of a newspaper, and the purpose of a news
story is objective reporting of current facts. Objective reporting means
reporting all sides of a story without expression of the reporter's opi-nion.
The Clarion is a weekly publication, unable to report news as timely
as a daily paper does. Thus, our basic approach will be toward
"featurized news," news with a particular angle of interest.
Feature stories are different in that they focus more on people and
places than on events. Their purpose is to draw interest.
If the Clarion is controversial, the controversy should center around
the editorials. Editorials are the opinion of the staff, and are purposed
to inform, praise or criticize. A critical editorial should define a problem
and offer solutions.
We intend to hold to these journalistic principles. Yet our publica-tion
is not limited to them. We will also print columns and editorial car-toons
which are the personal views of the authors.
Readers are welcomed to express their views in letters to the editor.
Obviously the Clarion cannot step outside of the commuity's standards
concerning profanity and slander, but we welcome personal opinion
thoughfully expressed.
Attempts at humor may also appear periodically, and hopefully the
Clarion will be entertaining in its columns and features.
While the Clarion is devoted to improved journalistic style and enter-tainment,
let it be remembered that it is not a daily newspaper or a
magazine, and should not be compared with such. This paper
represents the Bethel constituency and is aimed at that community.
For this reason we aim for an increased focus on the spiritual atmos-phere
at Bethel. If the college is distinct as a Christian institution, cer-tainly
its publications should reflect its distinctiveness. We intend not
to compartmentalize these values but to integrate them in all our work.
This spirit will not allow us to remain passive on issues that need
critical analysis, nor with it allow us to fall into the cynicism and vindic-tiveness
often characterizing an editorial staff.
Our goal is to further the growth of the body and its members.
Finally, we plan to cherish the lessons learned from our memorable
predecessors, Marshall Shelley, Paul Healy, Bill Trollinger and Bruce
Olsen. Rather than shunning our roots, let us build on their ruins.

Short-term mission
finds South troubled
by Mark Rentz
Four Bethel students this past
summer went on a short term
mission, to the Untied States.
Rick Chapman, Carol Dischin-ger,
Paul Nethercott, and Carolyn
Olson went south this summer
and worked with Voice of Calvary
in Mendenhall, and Jackson,
Mississippi.
Their mission assignments con-sisted
of camp work, counseling,
construction, renovation, crafts,
summer Bible schools, running
errands, and dealing with pre-judices—
their own, and others.
The Voice of Calvary began in
1960 when John Perkins moved
back to Mississippi from Califor-nia.
He responded to the injus-tice,
poverty and racism that
prevailed amongst and against his
people.
Perkins knew that a proclama-tion
of the gospel was not enough.
There had to be a demonstration
of the gospel as well.
He began a ministry that has
often seen him beaten and jailed
in his efforts to try to preach a
gospel that can burn through
racial hatred and 'reconcile people
in one body to Jesus Christ.
"The South is so completely
different from the North," ex-by
Suzi Wells
This summer, 21 students rep-resented
Bethel in countries all
over the world as members of Stu-dent
Missionary Project (SMP).
Culture shock, language bar-riers,
and food problems were
common. But in spite of these
difficulties, the summer mission-aries
became more aware of what
it means to be part of the univer-sal
church.
The SMPers this summer in-cluded
Paul Battige, Steve Far-quharson,
and Dan Miller in
British Columbia, Carol Dischin-ger
and Paul Nethercott with
Voice of Calvary in Mississippt,
Paul Hertenstein in Guatemala,
Bobbie Dischinger, Becky Miller
and Leigh Ann Rettie in Mexico,
Sue Sult and Bob Thorp in Alas-ka,
Tannie Woods and Sharon
Bowman in India, Dana Olson in
Hawaii, Cindy Martin and Vicki
Bean in Japan, Debbie Nash in
Chicago, Sandy Madsen in
Philadelphia, and Mike Messer,
Tim Bont and Suzi Wells in
Quito, Ecuador.
Dana Olson said that he noticed
a caring attitude and no barriers
between the Hawallan Christians.
"The aloha spirit is really alive
there," he said. "The people will
love anyone—they don't care
what race, Filipino, Japanese,
Chinese, Korean, Hawaiian, or
niainland American. They all get
along beautifully."
plained Carolyn Olson. "You
don't see blacks and whites walk-ing
together down the street.
Racism in the South is the normal
way of life. Most people, many of
them Christians, do not think it's
wrong."
Carolyn went on, "It's hard for
us to understand how deep this
problem goes. For example, a
black fellow worker said, 'Aren't
you afraid to be here with us?' I
said, 'No, I didn't know I was
supposed to be.' "
Rick Chapman explained the
component points of the ministry.
"There are three 'Ws (which) they
call the real evangelism) that the
Voice of Calvary is founded on.
on.
"Reconciliation, Redistribu-tion,
and Relocation. Reconcilia-tion
is to reconcile everyone to
God in one body; breaking down
cultural and racial barriers and
presenting ourselves unified.
"Redistribution consists of
feeding the stomach as well as the
soul, of sharing and meeting the
needs of others with the blessing
that God has given us.
"Relocation is to put ourselves
where there is a need. To reach
out with the love of Christ."
Carolyn added, "God relocated
Cindy spent nearly all of her
time with the Japanese, so the
language barrier was a problem
for her. All of her students spoke
English, but at different levels.
She was able to share her faith,
in English, to the Japanese, and
they were receptive to what she
had to say. Cindy became so ac-customed
to hearing Japanese
that she could sit in front of the
T.V. for two hours and enjoy
listening to the language.
Living situations varied for the
summer missionaries. Dana lived
with a Buddhist man, and Cindy
lived with a Buddhist family in
Japan.
Tannie Woods and Sharon
Bowman lived part of the time in
a cottage. In one home they car-ried
two buckets of water a day to
use for drinking and washing.
The SMPers in Quito, Ecuador,
lived with American missionaries
in homes similar to homes here in
the United States.
Bobbie Dishinger, in Mexico
City with Becky Miller, said that
she "lived with a middle class
family." She added, however,
that her Mexican home would be
considered lower class, and even
slum area, in the Unites States.
The job experiences of the
summer missionaries varied
greatly. Dana worked building a
church, and he also was a preach-er
for two sermons, a youth
leader, a counselor, a choir or-ganizer
and choir director. He

were given to me," said Rick.

worked with many new Chris-tians,
and was challenged to help
them grow in their spiritual lives.
"My work wasn't evangel-ism,"
Dana explained. "It was
discipleship." He worked long
and hard hours—often 15 hours a
day, seven days a week.
"I wasn't there to play a-round,"
said Dana, though he
admitted he had a chance to body
surf a little and see a few sights.
He grew close to the people he
worked with, and 100 people saw
him off at the airport. "I didn't
want to leave," he said. "It was a
tremendous summer."
Bobbie shared Dana's feelings.
"It was an invaluable and beauti-ful
experience," she said. Her
work was not easy. She lived in a
crowded city spoke Spanish all
summer, and also had to adjust to
the more casual lifestyle of the
Mexicans.
"I really think their way of life
is better than the American way
of life," Bobbie said of the
Mexicans. "To them, people are
what matter, not schedules, dates
or places to be."
The degree of culture shock,
problems with people, or pro-blems
with food was different for
each individual summer mission-ary.
But all experienced a need to
trust in the Lord, in situations
new and, in most cases, far from
home.
Tannie summed up her sum-mer
this way. "Not everything

Rick thought that he didn't

there. We all need to deal with
these things."

Giebel: Christian striving to
explore and depict art beauty
by Debbie Bunger
"Beauty is the primary concern
of a visual artist," said Douglas
Giebel as he hosted the art
department's first matrix, Sept.
13, in the gallery. Surrounded by
his own paintings, Giebel spoke
to the audience to orient them
with himself as an artist and new
staff member.
Giebel describes himself as a
figurative artist and not a realist.
"The word 'realist' has too
many connotations. To a realist,
content has prominent signifi-cance.
It takes precedence over
and above form. My interest is in
form. Not devoid from content,
but content is not pre-eminent."
"I wouldn't say that there is a
Christian style or Christian sub-ject
per se in visual arts." But,
Giebel states, there are limits in
the visual arts.
"One cannot paint a painting
of Christ and make it felt that
Christ is God. This is an area
where literature can best describe
the feeling."
Giebel states that the relation-ship
between Christianity and art
is seen by understanding the
cultural mandate given to Chris-ians
in Genesis 1:26.
"Christian art fulfills this man-date
by exploring beauty and de-picting
it. We study creation to
give glory to God. The more we
appreciate beauty, the more of
God's character we see."
Giebel's show consists of three
categories of paintings: still life,
landscape, and figure. He finds
figure painting the most complex
yet the most interesting and
psychologically pleasing form.
His study of still life and land-scape
prepares him for figure
painting.
Included in Giebel's work are
several nudes which he describes
as "Christian nudes." He comes
to the subject with the biblical
view that man is created in God's
image.
"As Christians, we can't say
that the flesh is a lesser part of
man. Christians should not shy
away from it or non-Christians
will then set the mood for the
world. Man as flesh will then
become exploited."
Vitality of life is reflected in
Giebel's paintings. He paints
from this vitality, and has become
a perceptual painter, always
painting with his object before
him.
Before joining the Bethel staff,
Giebel studied art in New York
and then taught at Northwestern
College in 1976. Before coming to
Bethel, he devoted a year to
studio painting.
by Kriste Ericsson
Bethel's newest music director
is Charles Olson. Try-outs for
band and orchestra have already
been held.
"There is a good potential
here," he commented. "I am
looking forward to working with
more mature students, students
who really want to learn."
Mr. Olson left a position as
Anoka High School's band direc-tor
to come to Bethel. Though he
was satisfied with his work there,
he likes variety. "I consider new
experiences and a change of
scenery very exciting and broad-ening,"
he said.
Mr. Olson graduated from St.
Cloud State with an M.A. degree
in Music Education and started
teaching in Anoka in 1959. He
lives in Anoka with his wife, Joan,
and their two children, David and
Cathy.
He has acquired a collection of
American instruments of old and
peculiar design, sometimes play-ing
old tunes on old instruments!
Though his usual instrument is
the trumpet, he considers any
well-played instrument "a thing of
beauty and worth listening to."
This year he is planning a band
tour of Minnesota, and perhaps a
tour for the orchestra as well. He
plans to keep the traditional
Bethel concerts, using music from
a variety of periods.
"I would like people to be in-wardly
affected by the music they
hear," Mr. Olson said thought-fully.
"Neither performer nor list-ener
should be able to go to a
concert without contributing
something of themselves to the
music."
by Judy Hougen
It's that time of year again.
Scores of Bethel hopefuls turn out
to show what they've got, in order
to become a part of the touring
gospel teams.
The teams are requested by
community and church organiza-tions
who ask them to come and
perform.
The main emphasis of the
groups is not only music, but
spreading the good news of Jesus
Christ. About 50 percent of the
teams' efforts are spent offstage,
meeting people and telling how
Christ functions in their lives.
The gospel teams must practice
at least twice a week, and must go
out on at least one weekend
outing and two evening outings a
month. Commitment to the group
must always take priority over
social activities.
It takes a special kind of person
to be a team member. He must
sing well and be able to learn
music quickly. He must tolerate
lengthy travel and get along well
with others. Confidence in talking
to new people and relating to
team on a one-to-one basis is also
needed. Above all, Jesus Christ

When Tim DeVries asked
Bethel students to appear as
extras in a Hollywood movie
being filmed at the University of
Minnesota, he received several
strange looks. Some even laughed
at his efforts.
But for Tim, the students'
response was not unusual. He
faced the same "yeah, sure"
attitude all summer while trying
to fmd shooting locations for the
$5-million movie entitled "Foolin'
Around."
As the location coordinator for
the Canon Comedy Corporation, a
company independently financed
by 20th Century Fox, Tim's job
includes reading the scripts and
finding the right locations for
each particular scene. For each
scene he must find four to five
alternative locations and then
show each location to the director
for approval.
Originally the film was called
"The Klutz." Since that time the
production has gone through five
different scripts and two different
directors, resulting in several ma-jor
changes.
Only one location remained the
same, and Tim had to procure 100
separate new locations.
Not easily discouraged, Tim
has received much of his inspir-ation
from working with his asso-ciates.
"Movie people are the hardest
working people I've ever seen in
my life," he said. "They put in
six days of work, working 12-14
hours per day."
Tim also has charge of pro-curing
extras for parts in the film
and has already assigned parts to
Bethel students. Himself a Bethel
senior, it is Tim's hope that "peo-ple
will see as many Bethel faces
as I can put in there." Among
those receiving parts are Pam
Fahlin and Jack Kuhn.
In the film, Gary Busey of the
"Buddy Holly Story" plays a
country bumpkin from Oklahoma
moved to Minnesota to pursue
architectural schooling. While
there he meets and falls in love
with Susan Carlson, played by
Annette O'Toole, who is about to
marry a Harvard millionare,
played by John Calvin.
For one scene requiring more
specific detail than others, Tim
had to find an apartment building
with a large tree overhanging the
road, preferably with a balcony.
In the script, Bronski, the con
man, sets up Busey and grabs his
money for textbooks. When
Busey returns with his All-Ameri-can
boy routine, Bronski's thugs
throw Busey out. So Busey and
his best friend Clay hoist
Bronski's Porsche Carrerra over
the limb of the tree, using a big
rope and the branch as a pulley.
The movie climaxes with an
elaborate stop-the-wedding chase
scene in which Busey flies
through the window of St. Paul's
Cathedral with his hang glider.
The actual crash, however, occurs
in a livestock barn at the fair-grounds.
And the after crash
scene takes place in St. Mary's
Cathedral in downtown Minnea-polis.
The chase scene has locations
fifty miles apart and the entire
series of shots has to be spliced
together into one eight minute
sequence. Nearly 50 different
vehicles will be used along with
stunt men and special effects
experts.
Production of the film was
slowed before it ever began when
armed robbers subdued security
guards and emptied a warehouse
of several thousand dollars of
equipment. So far the three ban-dits,
all armed with shotguns,
have not been apprehended.
Tim predicts that the future will
see several movie companies pro-ducing
major films in the Twin
Cities area. Columbia pictures
recently completed the produc-tion
of the film "Ice Castles and
Gregory Peck may come to the
metro area with "Wind Chill
Factor."
According to Tim, the Minn-eapolis-
St. Paul area is appealing
to film companies because of the
favorable cooperation of the local
governments and the lack of
having to obtain film permits,
unlike the Los Angeles area which
requires extensive permits.

Male chorus members received
a different kind of liberal arts
education this summer as they
sang and traveled for one month
in five European countries.
The group lived in homes
where no English was spoken.
They sang in parks, churches and
military bases, and saw Christian
traditions that were different
from their own.
"The choir received such
friendly and receptive crowds,"
said director Oliver A. Mogck.
"They were all so supportive to
our young men."
While travelling under the
heading "...Make His Praise
Glorious!," taken from Psalm
66:2, the group sang in England,
Germany, Denmark, Sweden and
Norway.
The program consisted of sac-red
classics, spirituals, hymns
and a few contemporary num-bers.
One London editor called
the group "an exceptional choir...
that has everything."
The chorus found this recep-tiveness
everywhere they went.
"In just two weeks, the records
of our program were sold out,"
said chorus member Joel John-son.
"We had to make extra
copies from a spare tape of a
rehearsal." Mogck pointed out
that some of these same records
are available in the bookstore.
"I feel that such an experience
is right on target," expressed
Mogck. "I feel it can only com-plement
a liberal arts education."
The choirs' class, which cen-tered
on the cultures of northern
Europe, was taught by Dr. Olaf
Olsen. All 46 members were
required to keep a journal and
write a term paper during their
month-long tour.
Mogck was quick to state that
such a program gives students a
new approach to other peoples'
customs, cultures and lands.
"It must be pointed out that we
were not just tourists," said
chorus member Steve Hoswell.
"We obtained valuable know-ledge
by staying in homes."
Mogck and several members
described such housing as a valu-able
resource. "In one Swedish
home where my wife and I stayed,
very little English was spoken,"
said Mogck. "Only through ges-tures
and the pointing out of
words within key verses in the
Bible were we able to communi-cate."
At the same time, members
told of meeting people whose
faith was structured differently
from most Americans. "I found
myself always comparing Europe
to America," said Robert Peota.
"Their religion seems to have
such a strong background."
Chorus member Randy John-son
stated that such reliance on
"roots" instead of faith "made it
seem that some of the church
attendance was low compared to
American standards."
Members also described hum-orous
situations throughout the
tour.
"In Oveber, Sweden, the home
I was staying at had a girl who
was looking for a place to learn
English in England," said chorus
member Mark Tanquist. "I in-vited
her to my parent's house in
England for the summer."
One member showed clearly
how rewarding such a trip can be.
"I have lived in America 20 years
without ever seeing the presi-dent,"
said Steve Hoswell, "and
in just one week in London, I have
seen the prince of England."

7 pm evening
When looking over the campus
coordinators' social program for
the year, many Bethel students
evaluate its successfulness by the
concerts that will be coming here.
This is just reaction, because
booking good, contemporary,
Christian musicians is the goal to
which we devote most of our time
and effort.
Our work, as far as booking
concerts, began as soon as we got
the job last spring. It consisted
then of asking people who they
would like to hear, reading about
contemporary musicians, and
listening to a whole array of
Christian albums.
Over the summer, many letters
and phone calls were made to
agents in various cities across the
U.S. By the end of August, after
booking five out of our projected
six concerts, we were satisfied
with our efforts.
This weekend, we are excited
to bring to Bethel our first concert
of the year. On Saturday night,
Sept. 23, at 8 p.m., Eden, a local
group consisting of three mem-bers,
will be performing as a
warm-up group.
Eden has played in coffee
houses around the Twin Cities
area and at Trout Lake Camp, and
are sure to bring a plus to the
evening.
The highlight of the evening is
John Fischer, a relatively new
Christian musician from Califor-nia.
He is a folk guitarist and has
often been labeled "teacher-musician"
because of the impact
of the words he sings.
With the release of his sixth
album, "Inside," John has
grounded his reputation in the
realm of Christian musicians.
Stop by our office to listen to his
album and get a taste of his style
of music.
Tickets will be sold at $2.50 in
advance and $3 at the door.
Other concerts coming up for
this year include the Second
Chapter of Acts, The Archers,
Tom Howard, Randy Stonehill
and the Talbot Brothers along
with Jamie Owens.

Bethel receives cost reduction award
Ever feel like you have been
crammed into a box? We in the
Student Senate sometimes do.
Mention Student Senate and im-mediately
such words as "help-less"
and "hopeless" come to
mind. Some have visions of semi-intellectuals
smothered in the
finer details of parliamentary pro-cedure
while others see radicals
eternally pointing fingers at every
minute discrepancy in sight.
We are not that way!
Sure we use parliamentary pro-cedure
to help organize our meet-ings
and we also feel that part of
our job is to identify problems.
But don't limit us to that.
We aim to be a positive ele-ment
contributing towards a
growing community. More than
that, we want to involve you in
that creative process. Our first
two weeks together as a Senate
have focused on the implemen-tation
of that objective.
Your Senate experienced a
mini-sabbatical on September
ninth. Designed to be a time of
growth for us both as individuals
and as a group, the day-long
retreat was invaluable as a jump-ing
off point for the year to come.
Dave Lee, this year's faculty
moderator, provided top-notch
resource materials for us to dis-cuss
and utilize. His experience
incommunications and as a
former student body president
combined to make him a parti-cularly
appropriate speaker.
From the Dean's office, Dwight
Jessup challenged us to be able to
appreciate unity and respect di-versity.
That is crucial if we are to
develop as a community.
"Perspectives on Leadership"
was the title of a Saturday semin-ar
put together by Shirley Mullen
from the Student Affairs office.
Students from a vast array of
groups participated in several
sessions oriented around the
theme of the qualities of a leader.
As our time together increased,
so did our ideas.
Of greater significance was the
growing awareness of the goals
that we share in common.
Participating in a Koffee
Klatche is your opportunity to
interact with Dean Brushaber in
an informal way. Every other
Wednesday, from 3:30 to 4:30 the
Senate sponsors this get-together
for 6 to 10 people. We invite you
to sign up soon in the Senate

Oak Room
opens, offers

by Patti Backlund
For the fourth consecutive
year, the Royal Oak Room
Restaurant will be open for stu-dents,
but on a smaller scale
because of the building construc-tion.
The Royal Oak Room is a
student-managed restaurant,
open every Thursday from 4:30 to
6:30 p.m. Students can use their
food cards and enjoy a regular
restaurant meal at school.
The restaurant will be in the
original Royal Oak Room, adja-cent
to the cafeteria. It will move
into the coffee shop after the
completion date, November 1,
according to Dean Brushaber.

The highlight of the trip was
the solo. During this time (three
days for the men, one night and
two days for the women) no one
had any food. They used the time
for prayer and meditation.
Even though the students had to
endure physical and emotional
pain (including mosquito bites),
they claimed that the trip helped
them grow spiritually. Several
admitted that they came to know
themselves better. At the end of
the trip "we got really close to
each other," said one.
There was also a short mara-thon

time to talk and evaluate the

The trip was worth one course
credit, providing the students
read four books and completed a
ten-page paper. Total cost was
$350. All freshmen and transfers
were informed of this course and
the students were chosen on a
first-serve basis.
Lundquist offers guidelines
President Lundquist, in this year's first chapel service,
proposed seven disciplines for members of the Bethel com-munity.
We list them here with hope that they will be seriously
considered as patterns for living for students, faculty and
administrators.
This year, under God, I resolve to use my freedom to choose
everyday:
To fulfill my classroom assignments.
To develop the abilities and skills God has entrusted to me.
To engage in personal devotion and prayer.
To worship in Chapel with my brothers and sisters in Christ.
To minister helpfully to others' needs that I can meet.
To live by Bethel's lifestyle standards both on and off campus.
To seek in all things I do to glorify God.

TRADITION
Bethel Hockey Club
goes varsity in MIAC
by Steve Erickson
Many surprises faced Bethel
students as they arrived on cam-pus
this year. Among the sur-prises
was the fact that construc-tion
was coming along on the new
dorms and that the coffee shop
was missing. Another surprise was
that the hockey club was now a
varsity team and was part of the
prestigious Minnesota Intercolle-giate
Athletic Conference.
Tom Correll, professor of an-thropology
and one of those
responsible for the change, said
that the reasons for the move
were manifold.
"It was a surprise that every-thing
happened so fast, but we
had a pretty successful season last
year. Also, there is a lot of sup-port
for the team here at Bethel.
So our argument was fairly
sound," he said.
A committee comprised of Cor-rell
and other faculty members
wrote the proposal. They passed
it on to the Student Senate and
the Faculty Student Athletic
Committee which both supported
it. The proposal was then sent to
the dean who approved it in a let-ter
on May 17.
Correll said there was a good
and bad side to the approval. "It
was good that it went through but
it was bad in that it came through
too late for recruiting," he said.
Yet Bethel did manage to land
eight to ten new players.
Although the hockey team is
part of Bethel's varsity inter-collegiate
sports program, it is not
part of the Physical Education
Athletic Budget. So, they must
still raise their own money.
The team's budget, originally
approved for $11,000, will pro-bably
be close to $16,000. Ice ren-tal
alone will cost approximately
$9,000.

gestion," said Debbie Bunger,
manager of the Oak Room.
The Royal Oak Room began
four years ago, when Wayne
Erickson, co-director of food ser-vice,
gave students the chance
to manage a restaurant. Since
then, organization has improved,
and Debbie is excited to try new
ideas this year.
The Oak Room also provides an
opportunity for students to use
their musical talents in live enter-tainment.
The menu and prices are the
same as last year, including the
favorite, all-you-can-eat salad bar
for $2. Selections range from
Filet Mignon and French Fried
Shrimp to the Royal Burger. All
entrees include the salad bar,
vegetable or potato, warm bread,
and beverage.
One half of the kitchen is set up
for the restaurant each Thursday.
Tim Nelson, head cook, Sari
Winans, and Ben Dill prepare the
food. Orders are lined up and
prepared just as they are in any
restaurant. A micro-wave oven
also adds to the efficiency.
Sales amounted to $800 on
some nights last year. "It started
slow, but by the end business was
really booming," said Deanne
Barnum, former manager.

to be confused with Amorite,

Students can sign up with Nancy
Johnson at the food card desk
during the week. Tables will be
held only 10 minutes past reser-vation
time.

the students' benefit. It is a ser-vice

Aggressive Auggies defeat Royals 4-2
Bethel gridders
begin in MIAC
by Rob Haglund
After opening the season with a
13-0 victory over Mayville State of
North Dakota, the Bethel football
team played their first game ever
in the MIAC and lost to the St.
Thomas Tommies, 36-12, at Bre-mer
Field Saturday.
The season opener against
Mayville saw the Bethel defense
thwart the Comets time after
time. The Royal offense, ineffec-tive
through three quarters,
punched over two touchdowns in
the fourth quarter to give Bethel
the win.
Against St. Thomas, however,
the Royal defense was unable to
stop the passing game of the
Tommies and their outstanding
junior quarterback , Doug Deitz.
Deitz completed 8 of 13 passes
for 105 yards and three touch-downs.
The opening minutes of the
game seemed to be an ominous
indication of what the rest of the
day had in store for the Royals.
After forcing Bethel to punt on
the first series, St. Thomas took
possession on Bethel's 42 yard
line.
On their first play from scrim-mage
Deitz pitched to halfback
Layne Hendel who pulled up and
threw over the charging Bethel
defense to split end Chuck Rodin.
Rodin easily out-distanced the
Royal defenders for a 42-yard
touchdown play.
Things did not get any better
for Bethel as quarterback Lonnie
Holmgren was intercepted on the
next series and St. Thomas
started a drive which culminated
in Deitz's ID pass to flanker Bill
Mahre.
On the second play of the
second quarter, sophomore place-kicker
Paul Lindberg put Bethel
on the scoreboard with a 30-yard
field goal. The momentum
seemed to be swinging towards
Bethel at this point as the Royal
defense stopped St. Thomas and
forced the Tommies to punt.
The Royals followed with one
first down but were stopped and
freshman Jeff Wilson came on to
punt. Mahre could not handle Wil-son's
punt however, and Kelly
Brandes recovered for Bethel on
by Phoebe Morgan
"We're definitely a much
stronger team this year than last,"
concluded women's cross country
coach Shirley Dawson.
With five freshmen, the team
will be much more complete than
last year's team which ran only
one freshman.
"I expect that at least four
freshmen will be in the top seven
runners," Coach Dawson said.
Along with the new members,
three sophomores, two juniors,
and two seniors have returned for
another season.

the Tommie 39.
Visions of a comeback faded
when the Royals could not get a
first down, and Lindberg's 52-
yard field goal attempt fell short.
St. Thomas came right back,
driving 65 yards and scoring on a
25-yard pass from Deitz to Rodin.
The extra point made the score
20-3. Following a series of ex-changes,
St. Thomas took over on
Bethel's 42. And with just 3
seconds left in the half, Deitz hit
Rodin with his third TD pass to
give the Tommies a 27-3 halftime
lead.
The second half saw each team
score a safety, Bethel's coming
when Gary Leafblad and Dave
Laudon sacked back-up QB Mike
Flood in the end zone. Freshman
QB Tim Hessburg scored Bethel's
only TD on a '7-yard run in the
fourth quarter.
St. Thomas scored their safety
late in the game to finish the
scoring at 36-12.
Bethel outgained the Tommies
200-97 on the ground, but could
not stop the passing attack of St.
Thomas, who topped their record
to 2-0 (1-0 in the conference).
Tomorrow the Royals, now 1-1
(0-1 in the conference), will try to
extend the 35-game losing streak
of the Macalester Scots in a 1:30
p.m. game at Macalester.

The Bethel Men's Cross Coun-try
team will travel to Bemidji
tomorrow to make up for a sche-dule
change last week. Last Sat-urday
the team participated in the
St. Cloud Invitational.
An early morning storm caused
a wet and soggy trail; fallen trees
posed more difficulties. Because
of the conditions, the coaches
decided not to score the meet.

Friesen came out on top for
Bethel, with 34th place out of 110
participants. Returning senior
Dave Clapp did not finish due to a
Coach Dawon explained that
her main objective is to prepare
the team for a top performance at
state.
"I'd like to see our top five
runners break our present re-cord,"
she said, "and I don't think
that's unreasonable considering
the girls' abilities.
"My priorities are to keep the
girls healthy and help them im-prove,
so that their peak per-formances

The Bethel soccer team began
its season on a high note, bomb-ing
St. Paul Concordia 5-0 last
Wednesday before falling to
Augsburg 4-2 on Saturday.
Playing in a downpour before a
sparse crowd at Bethel's Bremer
Field, the Royals completely out-classed
the visiting Comets in the
opener. The winners were led by
junior winger Doug Hage who
scored three goals.
sore ankle. Clapp is expeCted to
run tomorrow.
Coach Glader commented,
"This team is definitely • better
than last year's. Key freshmen
are Bob Holt from Mason City,
Iowa, and Mark Doner from An-chorage,
Alaska. Senior Dave
Clapp replaces last year's
captain, Curt Brown.
Other races this season in-cluded
a low-keyed alumni race
where sophomore Brent Friesen
finished first. In the first meet of
the season, held Sept. 9, against
Gustavus and Southwest, Bethel
took second.
The team presently runs about
35 miles a week in training. By
the end of October, the girls will
be running about 50 miles a week.
This Saturday, Sept. 23, the
team runs in the Golden Valley
Lutheran Invitational.
"It should be a good meet to
start the season," Coach Dawson
predicted. "It is quite large and
we'll compete against a variety of
racers. We'll be able to see the
best and the worst competition so
we'll get a good picture of what's
in store for us this year."
The game marked Goalie Dave
Vessey's first career shutout. He
was starting in place of Jeff
Beckman who injured his hip in
practice a few days earlier.

Jon Fast, Doug Barkey, and Jon

to very few accurate shots.

treated to steak dinners by Ves-sey.
Greg "Homer" Thom started
the scoring by chipping a per-fectly
placed shot into the upper
left-hand corner of the goal. The
goalie did not make an attempt on
the ball.
Bob Palmquist, positioned in
the right place, pumped in the
second goal a couple of minutes
later. Hage scored next to make it
3-0 at half.
Midway through the second
half, Hage put in his second tally,
deflecting a shot by Thom. A
couple of minutes later Hage
finished his hat-trick and the
scoring, driving a hard, low shot
past the helpless Concordia
goalie.

Bethel freshman Scott Feltman

half. But Augsburg took the lead
with two goals in the next five
minutes. Both were scored off
rebounds caused by mix-ups in

New LRC annex to be ready
for January occupancy
First dorms to be
done by Thanks
CLEM Zeke's Zetesis
see page two
Bethel College Vol. 54 No. 1 September 22, 1978
by Paul A. Olsen
Barring unexpected delay, the
first new Arden Hills dorm will be
completed by Thanksgiving. The
second dorm is expected to follow
six weeks later.
This additional housing will
not, however, solve the present
shortage. Capacity of the two
dorms is around 270, and there
are 400 students now living on old
campus.
Director of Student Affairs
Mack Nettleton said Bethel hopes
to continue leasing the old cam-pus,
but will look for other alter-natives
if the US government
decides on eviction.
Nettleton is very pleased with
the design of the new buildings.
Each coed dorm is split into two
wings of three floors with about
24 people living on each floor.
The commons area between the
two wings will contain two
lounges—one with a fireplace—a
laundry room, a study area, a rec
room, and a kitchen.
The dorms will be air-conditioned
and carpeted. The
rooms will be sound-insulated
with a two-inch concrete slab over
the wood floors, and with in-sulation
between all stud walls.
Other grounds improvements
include an enlarged circle parking
lot and a new foot bridge on the
south lawn. The parking lot is still
being expanded. Parking is al-lowed
on the gravel-filled areas
which are being allowed to settle
until next summer when the area
will be blacktopped.
The footbridge was built by
Mack Nettleton and Paul Redin to
provide an alternative to walking
along the road.
Unlike the expedient bridge-building,
the new dorms have
been in planning and under con-struction
for a long time. On
January 6, 1977, a committee of
students and administrators met
with Cottle-Herman Architects to
discuss dorm plans.
The committee made a list of 14
features they would like to see in
the dorms, and presented it to the
architects. "I was very pleasantly
surprised," said Nettleton, "that
every single suggestion was in-corporated
into the blueprints."
Requests included installing a
storage locker for each room, and
suggestions for design of sinks,
bathrooms, and lighting place-ment.
Though the construction has
gone fairly well, an electricians'
and a pipe insulators' strike de-layed
progress. The pipe insula-tion,
though a seemingly minor
detail, had to be finished before
sheet-rocking could begin. These
delays have put the dorms four to
six weeks behind schedule.
Marilyn Starr and Bruce Kun-kel
are now designing strategies
for the move-in dates. Old cam-pus
residents are most likely to
first occupy the new dorms.
Since Bethel's housing phil-osophy
is to put freshmen in
dorms wherever possible, the
new dorms will be used ex-clusively
for freshmen in future
years.

With construction of the LRC
building's new annex, six weeks
behind schedule, Bethel students
will have to wait until January to
occupy it.
Level four, to be completed
before level three, according to
Dean Brushaber, will be divided
into two 60-person classrooms, a
temporary library and instructor's
offices. Each of the two class-rooms
will also be used for study
area in the evenings.
Level three will contain offices
of campus pastor, campus mini-stries,
public affairs and the
education department. The pre-sent
estimate for the entire pro-ject,
including landscaping, is set
at $850,000.
According to Dave Limner,
director of campus development,
the entire building will not be
ready for occupancy until
January, while the lower two
floors, containing the post office
area and coffee shop, will be rea-dy
for use much earlier.
Level one will house a 4000
square foot student lounge in
addition to the existing expanded
postal service. The second level
will expand seating for the coffee
shop and a dining room for
special events.
Bethel losing money over old campus lease conditions
by Jay Russell
"Bethel is losing over $8,000
per semester under the conditions
of the old campus lease with the
government," Dean' George
Brushaber announced last week
in an interview.
Under the conditions of the
lease, Bethel must pay for all
utilities including water, sewage,
electricity, oil and gas. Bethel is
also responsible for the security
and maintenance of the entire
campus, which involves snow re-moval
and upkeep of the lawn and
parking areas.
Another provision in the lease
is that either party may terminate
the lease with a 30-day eviction
notice. "It is highly unlikely,"
Brushaber assured, "that the
government would terminate the
lease, considering the legal pro-blems
involved with the Job
Corps program."
If all rooms are occupied, rental
income from students at old cam-pus
is $109,560, while Bethel's
operating expenses are estimated
at $118,363, resulting in a loss of
$8,803. "In effect, those students
not living on old campus are
subsidizing the old campus resi-dents,"
Dean Brushaber stated.
Operational costs for old cam-pus
include utilities expenses,
custodial upkeep;; custodial sup-plies,
laundry service, security
costs, insurance, and repair and
replacement costs for broken fix-tures.
Other costs include the salaries
for the resident directors, dorm
presidents and the R.A.'s. Busing
is another large expense, costing
about $26,000 for four months.
Explaining why Bethel chose to
lease old campus, Brushaber re-vealed
that "Bethel made a de-posit
on an apartment complex in
New Brighton, with the realtor
giving us the impression that the
owner had accepted our offer."
The announcement was then
made to the students that more
apartments would be available for
the fall term.
"We later discovered that the
owner had wanted more money,
so we were forced to cancel the
transaction," Brushaber stated.
The dean also stressed that "we
searched everywhere for another
apartment complex, but couldn't
find any that were suitable. The
purchase price was either too
high, or the buildings were in bad
shape physically."
Other temporary housing alter-natives
under consideration were
the Twin Cities arsenal north of
Bethel, the St. Paul Hotel, and
some of the other nearby colleges
• and hospitals.
With all of the problems in-volved
with finding a suitable
housing alternative, Brushaber
stated that "we were thrilled
when we' heard from the de-partment
of labor that our lease
on old campus would be ex-tended."
Zeke's Zetesis
Zeke and Zeus reveal column's future
A junior did not offer a hasty
response, but first spent a long
night of diligent research in the
LRC. The following morning with
beaming face he positively af-firmed
"It's a new word game
from Milton Bradley."
An experienced senior having
scratched his head, remarked
thoughtfully "The significance of
Zeke is yet to be determined, and
zetesis...it's Greek to me!"
Actually, Zeke and zetesis have
great significance. The historical
foundations of the name Zeke
have their roots in Greek mytho-logy.
Zekian scholars have de-bated
vehemently on this issue.
While they agree that Zeke is
directly related to the god Zeus,
they disagree concerning the pre-cise
identity of Zeke.
Liberal Zekian scholars believe
he was Zeus' third cousin, while
more conservative Zekian schol-ars
are convicted that Zeke was
Zeus' pet frog. (Rumor has it that
the Zekes even pulled an all-nighter
once discussing their ir-reconcilable
differences.)
Zekian scholars have also post-ed
the following options for the
contemporary significance of
cont. on page 7
by Rick Chapman
Zeke? Zetesis? What is the
meaning of such outrageous
terms? Members of the Bethel
community feel differently con-cerning
this question. A fresh and
green freshman inquired "What
manner of foolishness is this?"
A sophisticated sophomore in-dicated
his level of intelligence
while responding to the question
posed by the freshmen, " 'Tis wise
foolishness."
Student Affairs applauded
Applause is due to the Student Affairs office for improvements made
over the summer.
First, the Bethel lifestyle policy was revised to clarify the meaning of
two lines. A new sentence states, "Members of the college community
ar.e required to refrain from these practices." This was formerly
missing from the paragraph on alcohol, gambling and narcotics.
Additionally, in the following paragraph the word "expected" was
replaced by the more specific term "required."
Residents of new campus will beneift this winter from the new
handrails by the paths to the townhouses. Supported by the Senate and
the Clarion, the Student Affairs office took steps to install the rails.
The Welcome Week staff, led by Curt Gruber and Nancy Ahlberg,
started the year on a positive note with its highly organized and
creative planning. Thanks goes to these for the innovations.
Integrity in style
sought by new staff
A statement of the Clarion's editorial policy, though traditional and
necessary, poses a problem. While the paper's purpose changes little
from year to year, the editorial staff varies considerably.
Here we want to state more than just the ideals of a college news-paper.
We want to communicate a personality.
Regardless of how objectively a staff reports news, its personal at-titudes
will shine through in its editorials, its columns, and the variety
of news and features it prints. Hopefully we will make clear both our
policy and our personality.
Informing is the first duty of a newspaper, and the purpose of a news
story is objective reporting of current facts. Objective reporting means
reporting all sides of a story without expression of the reporter's opi-nion.
The Clarion is a weekly publication, unable to report news as timely
as a daily paper does. Thus, our basic approach will be toward
"featurized news," news with a particular angle of interest.
Feature stories are different in that they focus more on people and
places than on events. Their purpose is to draw interest.
If the Clarion is controversial, the controversy should center around
the editorials. Editorials are the opinion of the staff, and are purposed
to inform, praise or criticize. A critical editorial should define a problem
and offer solutions.
We intend to hold to these journalistic principles. Yet our publica-tion
is not limited to them. We will also print columns and editorial car-toons
which are the personal views of the authors.
Readers are welcomed to express their views in letters to the editor.
Obviously the Clarion cannot step outside of the commuity's standards
concerning profanity and slander, but we welcome personal opinion
thoughfully expressed.
Attempts at humor may also appear periodically, and hopefully the
Clarion will be entertaining in its columns and features.
While the Clarion is devoted to improved journalistic style and enter-tainment,
let it be remembered that it is not a daily newspaper or a
magazine, and should not be compared with such. This paper
represents the Bethel constituency and is aimed at that community.
For this reason we aim for an increased focus on the spiritual atmos-phere
at Bethel. If the college is distinct as a Christian institution, cer-tainly
its publications should reflect its distinctiveness. We intend not
to compartmentalize these values but to integrate them in all our work.
This spirit will not allow us to remain passive on issues that need
critical analysis, nor with it allow us to fall into the cynicism and vindic-tiveness
often characterizing an editorial staff.
Our goal is to further the growth of the body and its members.
Finally, we plan to cherish the lessons learned from our memorable
predecessors, Marshall Shelley, Paul Healy, Bill Trollinger and Bruce
Olsen. Rather than shunning our roots, let us build on their ruins.

Short-term mission
finds South troubled
by Mark Rentz
Four Bethel students this past
summer went on a short term
mission, to the Untied States.
Rick Chapman, Carol Dischin-ger,
Paul Nethercott, and Carolyn
Olson went south this summer
and worked with Voice of Calvary
in Mendenhall, and Jackson,
Mississippi.
Their mission assignments con-sisted
of camp work, counseling,
construction, renovation, crafts,
summer Bible schools, running
errands, and dealing with pre-judices—
their own, and others.
The Voice of Calvary began in
1960 when John Perkins moved
back to Mississippi from Califor-nia.
He responded to the injus-tice,
poverty and racism that
prevailed amongst and against his
people.
Perkins knew that a proclama-tion
of the gospel was not enough.
There had to be a demonstration
of the gospel as well.
He began a ministry that has
often seen him beaten and jailed
in his efforts to try to preach a
gospel that can burn through
racial hatred and 'reconcile people
in one body to Jesus Christ.

different from the North," ex-by
Suzi Wells
This summer, 21 students rep-resented
Bethel in countries all
over the world as members of Stu-dent
Missionary Project (SMP).
Culture shock, language bar-riers,
and food problems were
common. But in spite of these
difficulties, the summer mission-aries
became more aware of what
it means to be part of the univer-sal
church.
The SMPers this summer in-cluded

Bowman in India, Dana Olson in
Hawaii, Cindy Martin and Vicki
Bean in Japan, Debbie Nash in
Chicago, Sandy Madsen in
Philadelphia, and Mike Messer,
Tim Bont and Suzi Wells in
Quito, Ecuador.
Dana Olson said that he noticed
a caring attitude and no barriers
between the Hawallan Christians.
"The aloha spirit is really alive
there," he said. "The people will
love anyone—they don't care
what race, Filipino, Japanese,
Chinese, Korean, Hawaiian, or
niainland American. They all get
along beautifully."
plained Carolyn Olson. "You
don't see blacks and whites walk-ing
together down the street.
Racism in the South is the normal
way of life. Most people, many of
them Christians, do not think it's
wrong."
Carolyn went on, "It's hard for
us to understand how deep this
problem goes. For example, a
black fellow worker said, 'Aren't
you afraid to be here with us?' I
said, 'No, I didn't know I was
supposed to be.' "
Rick Chapman explained the
component points of the ministry.
"There are three 'Ws (which) they
call the real evangelism) that the
Voice of Calvary is founded on.
on.
"Reconciliation, Redistribu-tion,
and Relocation. Reconcilia-tion
is to reconcile everyone to
God in one body; breaking down
cultural and racial barriers and
presenting ourselves unified.
"Redistribution consists of
feeding the stomach as well as the
soul, of sharing and meeting the
needs of others with the blessing
that God has given us.
"Relocation is to put ourselves
where there is a need. To reach
out with the love of Christ."
Carolyn added, "God relocated
Cindy spent nearly all of her
time with the Japanese, so the
language barrier was a problem
for her. All of her students spoke
English, but at different levels.
She was able to share her faith,
in English, to the Japanese, and
they were receptive to what she
had to say. Cindy became so ac-customed
to hearing Japanese
that she could sit in front of the
T.V. for two hours and enjoy
listening to the language.
Living situations varied for the
summer missionaries. Dana lived
with a Buddhist man, and Cindy
lived with a Buddhist family in
Japan.
Tannie Woods and Sharon
Bowman lived part of the time in
a cottage. In one home they car-ried
two buckets of water a day to
use for drinking and washing.
The SMPers in Quito, Ecuador,
lived with American missionaries
in homes similar to homes here in
the United States.
Bobbie Dishinger, in Mexico
City with Becky Miller, said that
she "lived with a middle class
family." She added, however,
that her Mexican home would be
considered lower class, and even
slum area, in the Unites States.
The job experiences of the
summer missionaries varied
greatly. Dana worked building a
church, and he also was a preach-er
for two sermons, a youth
leader, a counselor, a choir or-ganizer
and choir director. He

worked with many new Chris-tians,
and was challenged to help
them grow in their spiritual lives.
"My work wasn't evangel-ism,"
Dana explained. "It was
discipleship." He worked long
and hard hours—often 15 hours a
day, seven days a week.
"I wasn't there to play a-round,"
said Dana, though he
admitted he had a chance to body
surf a little and see a few sights.
He grew close to the people he
worked with, and 100 people saw
him off at the airport. "I didn't
want to leave," he said. "It was a
tremendous summer."
Bobbie shared Dana's feelings.
"It was an invaluable and beauti-ful
experience," she said. Her
work was not easy. She lived in a
crowded city spoke Spanish all
summer, and also had to adjust to
the more casual lifestyle of the
Mexicans.
"I really think their way of life
is better than the American way
of life," Bobbie said of the
Mexicans. "To them, people are
what matter, not schedules, dates
or places to be."
The degree of culture shock,
problems with people, or pro-blems
with food was different for
each individual summer mission-ary.
But all experienced a need to
trust in the Lord, in situations
new and, in most cases, far from

Tannie summed up her sum-mer
this way. "Not everything

Rick thought that he didn't

Giebel: Christian striving to
explore and depict art beauty
by Debbie Bunger
"Beauty is the primary concern
of a visual artist," said Douglas
Giebel as he hosted the art
department's first matrix, Sept.
13, in the gallery. Surrounded by
his own paintings, Giebel spoke
to the audience to orient them
with himself as an artist and new
staff member.
Giebel describes himself as a
figurative artist and not a realist.
"The word 'realist' has too
many connotations. To a realist,
content has prominent signifi-cance.
It takes precedence over
and above form. My interest is in
form. Not devoid from content,
but content is not pre-eminent."
"I wouldn't say that there is a
Christian style or Christian sub-ject
per se in visual arts." But,
Giebel states, there are limits in
the visual arts.
"One cannot paint a painting
of Christ and make it felt that
Christ is God. This is an area
where literature can best describe
the feeling."
Giebel states that the relation-ship
between Christianity and art
is seen by understanding the
cultural mandate given to Chris-ians
in Genesis 1:26.
"Christian art fulfills this man-date
by exploring beauty and de-picting
it. We study creation to
give glory to God. The more we
appreciate beauty, the more of
God's character we see."
Giebel's show consists of three
categories of paintings: still life,
landscape, and figure. He finds
figure painting the most complex
yet the most interesting and
psychologically pleasing form.
His study of still life and land-scape
prepares him for figure
painting.
Included in Giebel's work are
several nudes which he describes
as "Christian nudes." He comes
to the subject with the biblical
view that man is created in God's
image.
"As Christians, we can't say
that the flesh is a lesser part of
man. Christians should not shy
away from it or non-Christians
will then set the mood for the
world. Man as flesh will then
become exploited."
Vitality of life is reflected in
Giebel's paintings. He paints
from this vitality, and has become
a perceptual painter, always
painting with his object before
him.
Before joining the Bethel staff,
Giebel studied art in New York
and then taught at Northwestern
College in 1976. Before coming to
Bethel, he devoted a year to
studio painting.

Bethel's newest music director
is Charles Olson. Try-outs for
band and orchestra have already
been held.
"There is a good potential
here," he commented. "I am
looking forward to working with
more mature students, students
who really want to learn."
Mr. Olson left a position as
Anoka High School's band direc-tor
to come to Bethel. Though he
was satisfied with his work there,
he likes variety. "I consider new
experiences and a change of
scenery very exciting and broad-ening,"
he said.
Mr. Olson graduated from St.
Cloud State with an M.A. degree
in Music Education and started
teaching in Anoka in 1959. He
lives in Anoka with his wife, Joan,
and their two children, David and
Cathy.
He has acquired a collection of
American instruments of old and
peculiar design, sometimes play-ing
old tunes on old instruments!
Though his usual instrument is
the trumpet, he considers any
well-played instrument "a thing of
beauty and worth listening to."
This year he is planning a band
tour of Minnesota, and perhaps a
tour for the orchestra as well. He
plans to keep the traditional
Bethel concerts, using music from
a variety of periods.
"I would like people to be in-wardly
affected by the music they
hear," Mr. Olson said thought-fully.
"Neither performer nor list-ener
should be able to go to a
concert without contributing
something of themselves to the
music."
by Judy Hougen
It's that time of year again.
Scores of Bethel hopefuls turn out
to show what they've got, in order
to become a part of the touring
gospel teams.
The teams are requested by
community and church organiza-tions
who ask them to come and
perform.
The main emphasis of the
groups is not only music, but
spreading the good news of Jesus
Christ. About 50 percent of the
teams' efforts are spent offstage,

Christ functions in their lives.
The gospel teams must practice
at least twice a week, and must go
out on at least one weekend
outing and two evening outings a
month. Commitment to the group
must always take priority over
social activities.
It takes a special kind of person
to be a team member. He must
sing well and be able to learn
music quickly. He must tolerate
lengthy travel and get along well
with others. Confidence in talking
to new people and relating to
team on a one-to-one basis is also
needed. Above all, Jesus Christ

When Tim DeVries asked
Bethel students to appear as
extras in a Hollywood movie
being filmed at the University of
Minnesota, he received several
strange looks. Some even laughed
at his efforts.
But for Tim, the students'
response was not unusual. He
faced the same "yeah, sure"
attitude all summer while trying
to fmd shooting locations for the
$5-million movie entitled "Foolin'
Around."
As the location coordinator for
the Canon Comedy Corporation, a
company independently financed
by 20th Century Fox, Tim's job
includes reading the scripts and
finding the right locations for
each particular scene. For each
scene he must find four to five
alternative locations and then
show each location to the director
for approval.
Originally the film was called
"The Klutz." Since that time the
production has gone through five
different scripts and two different
directors, resulting in several ma-jor
changes.
Only one location remained the
same, and Tim had to procure 100
separate new locations.
Not easily discouraged, Tim
has received much of his inspir-ation
from working with his asso-ciates.
"Movie people are the hardest
working people I've ever seen in
my life," he said. "They put in
six days of work, working 12-14
hours per day."
Tim also has charge of pro-curing
extras for parts in the film
and has already assigned parts to
Bethel students. Himself a Bethel
senior, it is Tim's hope that "peo-ple
will see as many Bethel faces
as I can put in there." Among
those receiving parts are Pam
Fahlin and Jack Kuhn.
In the film, Gary Busey of the
"Buddy Holly Story" plays a
country bumpkin from Oklahoma
moved to Minnesota to pursue
architectural schooling. While
there he meets and falls in love
with Susan Carlson, played by
Annette O'Toole, who is about to
marry a Harvard millionare,
played by John Calvin.
For one scene requiring more
specific detail than others, Tim
had to find an apartment building
with a large tree overhanging the
road, preferably with a balcony.
In the script, Bronski, the con
man, sets up Busey and grabs his
money for textbooks. When
Busey returns with his All-Ameri-can
boy routine, Bronski's thugs
throw Busey out. So Busey and
his best friend Clay hoist
Bronski's Porsche Carrerra over
the limb of the tree, using a big
rope and the branch as a pulley.
The movie climaxes with an
elaborate stop-the-wedding chase
scene in which Busey flies
through the window of St. Paul's
Cathedral with his hang glider.
The actual crash, however, occurs
in a livestock barn at the fair-grounds.
And the after crash
scene takes place in St. Mary's
Cathedral in downtown Minnea-polis.
The chase scene has locations
fifty miles apart and the entire
series of shots has to be spliced
together into one eight minute
sequence. Nearly 50 different
vehicles will be used along with
stunt men and special effects
experts.
Production of the film was
slowed before it ever began when
armed robbers subdued security
guards and emptied a warehouse
of several thousand dollars of
equipment. So far the three ban-dits,
all armed with shotguns,
have not been apprehended.
Tim predicts that the future will
see several movie companies pro-ducing
major films in the Twin
Cities area. Columbia pictures
recently completed the produc-tion
of the film "Ice Castles and
Gregory Peck may come to the
metro area with "Wind Chill
Factor."
According to Tim, the Minn-eapolis-
St. Paul area is appealing
to film companies because of the
favorable cooperation of the local
governments and the lack of
having to obtain film permits,
unlike the Los Angeles area which
requires extensive permits.

Male chorus members received
a different kind of liberal arts
education this summer as they
sang and traveled for one month
in five European countries.
The group lived in homes
where no English was spoken.
They sang in parks, churches and
military bases, and saw Christian
traditions that were different
from their own.
"The choir received such
friendly and receptive crowds,"
said director Oliver A. Mogck.
"They were all so supportive to
our young men."
While travelling under the
heading "...Make His Praise
Glorious!," taken from Psalm
66:2, the group sang in England,
Germany, Denmark, Sweden and
Norway.
The program consisted of sac-red
classics, spirituals, hymns
and a few contemporary num-bers.
One London editor called
the group "an exceptional choir...
that has everything."
The chorus found this recep-tiveness
everywhere they went.
"In just two weeks, the records
of our program were sold out,"
said chorus member Joel John-son.
"We had to make extra
copies from a spare tape of a
rehearsal." Mogck pointed out
that some of these same records
are available in the bookstore.
"I feel that such an experience
is right on target," expressed
Mogck. "I feel it can only com-plement
a liberal arts education."
The choirs' class, which cen-tered
on the cultures of northern
Europe, was taught by Dr. Olaf
Olsen. All 46 members were
required to keep a journal and
write a term paper during their
month-long tour.
Mogck was quick to state that
such a program gives students a
new approach to other peoples'
customs, cultures and lands.
"It must be pointed out that we
were not just tourists," said
chorus member Steve Hoswell.
"We obtained valuable know-ledge
by staying in homes."
Mogck and several members
described such housing as a valu-able
resource. "In one Swedish
home where my wife and I stayed,
very little English was spoken,"
said Mogck. "Only through ges-tures
and the pointing out of
words within key verses in the
Bible were we able to communi-cate."
At the same time, members
told of meeting people whose
faith was structured differently
from most Americans. "I found
myself always comparing Europe
to America," said Robert Peota.
"Their religion seems to have
such a strong background."
Chorus member Randy John-son
stated that such reliance on
"roots" instead of faith "made it
seem that some of the church
attendance was low compared to
American standards."
Members also described hum-orous
situations throughout the
tour.
"In Oveber, Sweden, the home
I was staying at had a girl who
was looking for a place to learn
English in England," said chorus
member Mark Tanquist. "I in-vited
her to my parent's house in
England for the summer."
One member showed clearly
how rewarding such a trip can be.
"I have lived in America 20 years
without ever seeing the presi-dent,"
said Steve Hoswell, "and
in just one week in London, I have
seen the prince of England."

7 pm evening
When looking over the campus
coordinators' social program for
the year, many Bethel students
evaluate its successfulness by the
concerts that will be coming here.
This is just reaction, because
booking good, contemporary,
Christian musicians is the goal to
which we devote most of our time
and effort.
Our work, as far as booking
concerts, began as soon as we got
the job last spring. It consisted
then of asking people who they
would like to hear, reading about
contemporary musicians, and
listening to a whole array of
Christian albums.
Over the summer, many letters
and phone calls were made to
agents in various cities across the
U.S. By the end of August, after
booking five out of our projected
six concerts, we were satisfied
with our efforts.
This weekend, we are excited
to bring to Bethel our first concert
of the year. On Saturday night,
Sept. 23, at 8 p.m., Eden, a local
group consisting of three mem-bers,
will be performing as a
warm-up group.
Eden has played in coffee
houses around the Twin Cities
area and at Trout Lake Camp, and
are sure to bring a plus to the
evening.
The highlight of the evening is
John Fischer, a relatively new
Christian musician from Califor-nia.
He is a folk guitarist and has
often been labeled "teacher-musician"
because of the impact
of the words he sings.
With the release of his sixth
album, "Inside," John has
grounded his reputation in the
realm of Christian musicians.
Stop by our office to listen to his
album and get a taste of his style
of music.
Tickets will be sold at $2.50 in
advance and $3 at the door.
Other concerts coming up for
this year include the Second
Chapter of Acts, The Archers,
Tom Howard, Randy Stonehill
and the Talbot Brothers along
with Jamie Owens.

Ever feel like you have been

such words as "help-less"
and "hopeless" come to
mind. Some have visions of semi-intellectuals
smothered in the
finer details of parliamentary pro-cedure
while others see radicals
eternally pointing fingers at every
minute discrepancy in sight.
We are not that way!
Sure we use parliamentary pro-cedure
to help organize our meet-ings
and we also feel that part of
our job is to identify problems.
But don't limit us to that.
We aim to be a positive ele-ment
contributing towards a
growing community. More than
that, we want to involve you in
that creative process. Our first
two weeks together as a Senate
have focused on the implemen-tation
of that objective.
Your Senate experienced a
mini-sabbatical on September
ninth. Designed to be a time of
growth for us both as individuals
and as a group, the day-long
retreat was invaluable as a jump-ing
off point for the year to come.
Dave Lee, this year's faculty
moderator, provided top-notch
resource materials for us to dis-cuss
and utilize. His experience
incommunications and as a
former student body president
combined to make him a parti-cularly

From the Dean's office, Dwight
Jessup challenged us to be able to
appreciate unity and respect di-versity.
That is crucial if we are to
develop as a community.
"Perspectives on Leadership"
was the title of a Saturday semin-ar
put together by Shirley Mullen
from the Student Affairs office.
Students from a vast array of
groups participated in several
sessions oriented around the
theme of the qualities of a leader.
As our time together increased,
so did our ideas.
Of greater significance was the
growing awareness of the goals
that we share in common.
Participating in a Koffee
Klatche is your opportunity to
interact with Dean Brushaber in
an informal way. Every other
Wednesday, from 3:30 to 4:30 the
Senate sponsors this get-together
for 6 to 10 people. We invite you
to sign up soon in the Senate

Oak Room
opens, offers

by Patti Backlund
For the fourth consecutive
year, the Royal Oak Room
Restaurant will be open for stu-dents,
but on a smaller scale
because of the building construc-tion.
The Royal Oak Room is a
student-managed restaurant,
open every Thursday from 4:30 to
6:30 p.m. Students can use their
food cards and enjoy a regular
restaurant meal at school.
The restaurant will be in the
original Royal Oak Room, adja-cent
to the cafeteria. It will move
into the coffee shop after the
completion date, November 1,
according to Dean Brushaber.

The highlight of the trip was
the solo. During this time (three
days for the men, one night and
two days for the women) no one
had any food. They used the time
for prayer and meditation.
Even though the students had to
endure physical and emotional
pain (including mosquito bites),
they claimed that the trip helped
them grow spiritually. Several
admitted that they came to know
themselves better. At the end of
the trip "we got really close to
each other," said one.
There was also a short mara-thon
run, a service project and
time to talk and evaluate the
change in any policy provisions.

and would do it again if they had
the chance to. "You had better be
in shape for it," was their advice.
Remarked one, "It was tough on

The trip was worth one course
credit, providing the students
read four books and completed a
ten-page paper. Total cost was
$350. All freshmen and transfers
were informed of this course and
the students were chosen on a
first-serve basis.
Lundquist offers guidelines
President Lundquist, in this year's first chapel service,
proposed seven disciplines for members of the Bethel com-munity.
We list them here with hope that they will be seriously
considered as patterns for living for students, faculty and
administrators.
This year, under God, I resolve to use my freedom to choose
everyday:
To fulfill my classroom assignments.
To develop the abilities and skills God has entrusted to me.
To engage in personal devotion and prayer.
To worship in Chapel with my brothers and sisters in Christ.
To minister helpfully to others' needs that I can meet.
To live by Bethel's lifestyle standards both on and off campus.
To seek in all things I do to glorify God.

TRADITION
Bethel Hockey Club
goes varsity in MIAC
by Steve Erickson
Many surprises faced Bethel
students as they arrived on cam-pus
this year. Among the sur-prises
was the fact that construc-tion
was coming along on the new
dorms and that the coffee shop
was missing. Another surprise was
that the hockey club was now a
varsity team and was part of the
prestigious Minnesota Intercolle-giate
Athletic Conference.
Tom Correll, professor of an-thropology
and one of those
responsible for the change, said
that the reasons for the move
were manifold.
"It was a surprise that every-thing
happened so fast, but we
had a pretty successful season last
year. Also, there is a lot of sup-port
for the team here at Bethel.
So our argument was fairly
sound," he said.
A committee comprised of Cor-rell
and other faculty members
wrote the proposal. They passed
it on to the Student Senate and
the Faculty Student Athletic
Committee which both supported
it. The proposal was then sent to
the dean who approved it in a let-ter
on May 17.
Correll said there was a good
and bad side to the approval. "It
was good that it went through but
it was bad in that it came through
too late for recruiting," he said.
Yet Bethel did manage to land
eight to ten new players.
Although the hockey team is
part of Bethel's varsity inter-collegiate
sports program, it is not
part of the Physical Education
Athletic Budget. So, they must
still raise their own money.
The team's budget, originally
approved for $11,000, will pro-bably
be close to $16,000. Ice ren-tal
alone will cost approximately
$9,000.

gestion," said Debbie Bunger,
manager of the Oak Room.
The Royal Oak Room began
four years ago, when Wayne
Erickson, co-director of food ser-vice,
gave students the chance
to manage a restaurant. Since
then, organization has improved,
and Debbie is excited to try new
ideas this year.
The Oak Room also provides an
opportunity for students to use
their musical talents in live enter-tainment.
The menu and prices are the
same as last year, including the
favorite, all-you-can-eat salad bar
for $2. Selections range from
Filet Mignon and French Fried
Shrimp to the Royal Burger. All
entrees include the salad bar,
vegetable or potato, warm bread,
and beverage.
One half of the kitchen is set up
for the restaurant each Thursday.
Tim Nelson, head cook, Sari
Winans, and Ben Dill prepare the
food. Orders are lined up and
prepared just as they are in any
restaurant. A micro-wave oven
also adds to the efficiency.
Sales amounted to $800 on
some nights last year. "It started
slow, but by the end business was
really booming," said Deanne
Barnum, former manager.

to be confused with Amorite,

Room, was chosen out of many

room kept the name, even

Dining at the Oak Room will be
by reservation only this year.
Students can sign up with Nancy
Johnson at the food card desk
during the week. Tables will be
held only 10 minutes past reser-vation
time.
"The Oak Room is really for
the students' benefit. It is a ser-vice
for the students, provided by
them," comments Debbie. Profits

Aggressive Auggies defeat Royals 4-2
Bethel gridders
begin in MIAC
by Rob Haglund
After opening the season with a
13-0 victory over Mayville State of
North Dakota, the Bethel football
team played their first game ever
in the MIAC and lost to the St.
Thomas Tommies, 36-12, at Bre-mer
Field Saturday.
The season opener against
Mayville saw the Bethel defense
thwart the Comets time after
time. The Royal offense, ineffec-tive
through three quarters,
punched over two touchdowns in
the fourth quarter to give Bethel
the win.
Against St. Thomas, however,
the Royal defense was unable to
stop the passing game of the
Tommies and their outstanding
junior quarterback , Doug Deitz.
Deitz completed 8 of 13 passes
for 105 yards and three touch-downs.
The opening minutes of the
game seemed to be an ominous
indication of what the rest of the
day had in store for the Royals.
After forcing Bethel to punt on
the first series, St. Thomas took
possession on Bethel's 42 yard
line.
On their first play from scrim-mage
Deitz pitched to halfback
Layne Hendel who pulled up and
threw over the charging Bethel
defense to split end Chuck Rodin.
Rodin easily out-distanced the
Royal defenders for a 42-yard
touchdown play.
Things did not get any better
for Bethel as quarterback Lonnie
Holmgren was intercepted on the
next series and St. Thomas
started a drive which culminated
in Deitz's ID pass to flanker Bill
Mahre.
On the second play of the
second quarter, sophomore place-kicker
Paul Lindberg put Bethel
on the scoreboard with a 30-yard
field goal. The momentum
seemed to be swinging towards
Bethel at this point as the Royal
defense stopped St. Thomas and
forced the Tommies to punt.
The Royals followed with one
first down but were stopped and
freshman Jeff Wilson came on to
punt. Mahre could not handle Wil-son's
punt however, and Kelly
Brandes recovered for Bethel on
by Phoebe Morgan
"We're definitely a much
stronger team this year than last,"
concluded women's cross country
coach Shirley Dawson.
With five freshmen, the team
will be much more complete than
last year's team which ran only
one freshman.
"I expect that at least four
freshmen will be in the top seven
runners," Coach Dawson said.
Along with the new members,
three sophomores, two juniors,
and two seniors have returned for
another season.

the Tommie 39.
Visions of a comeback faded
when the Royals could not get a
first down, and Lindberg's 52-
yard field goal attempt fell short.
St. Thomas came right back,
driving 65 yards and scoring on a
25-yard pass from Deitz to Rodin.
The extra point made the score
20-3. Following a series of ex-changes,
St. Thomas took over on
Bethel's 42. And with just 3
seconds left in the half, Deitz hit
Rodin with his third TD pass to
give the Tommies a 27-3 halftime
lead.
The second half saw each team
score a safety, Bethel's coming
when Gary Leafblad and Dave
Laudon sacked back-up QB Mike

The Bethel Men's Cross Coun-try
team will travel to Bemidji
tomorrow to make up for a sche-dule
change last week. Last Sat-urday
the team participated in the
St. Cloud Invitational.
An early morning storm caused
a wet and soggy trail; fallen trees
posed more difficulties. Because
of the conditions, the coaches
decided not to score the meet.

Coach Dawon explained that
her main objective is to prepare
the team for a top performance at
state.
"I'd like to see our top five
runners break our present re-cord,"
she said, "and I don't think
that's unreasonable considering
the girls' abilities.
"My priorities are to keep the
girls healthy and help them im-prove,
so that their peak per-formances
will be at the Regional
meet held at Iowa State the first
weekend in November and the
State meet at Duluth on Nov. 11."

St. Paul Concordia 5-0 last
Wednesday before falling to
Augsburg 4-2 on Saturday.
Playing in a downpour before a
sparse crowd at Bethel's Bremer
Field, the Royals completely out-classed
the visiting Comets in the
opener. The winners were led by
junior winger Doug Hage who
scored three goals.

Coach Glader commented,
"This team is definitely • better
than last year's. Key freshmen
are Bob Holt from Mason City,
Iowa, and Mark Doner from An-chorage,
Alaska. Senior Dave
Clapp replaces last year's
captain, Curt Brown.
Other races this season in-cluded
a low-keyed alumni race
where sophomore Brent Friesen
finished first. In the first meet of
the season, held Sept. 9, against
Gustavus and Southwest, Bethel
took second.
The team presently runs about
35 miles a week in training. By
the end of October, the girls will
be running about 50 miles a week.
This Saturday, Sept. 23, the
team runs in the Golden Valley
Lutheran Invitational.
"It should be a good meet to
start the season," Coach Dawson
predicted. "It is quite large and
we'll compete against a variety of
racers. We'll be able to see the
best and the worst competition so
we'll get a good picture of what's
in store for us this year."
The game marked Goalie Dave
Vessey's first career shutout. He
was starting in place of Jeff
Beckman who injured his hip in
practice a few days earlier.
The defenders, Brian Bohne,
Jon Fast, Doug Barkey, and Jon
Fredrickson, helped limit Con-cordia
to very few accurate shots.
For their efforts, they were
treated to steak dinners by Ves-sey.
Greg "Homer" Thom started
the scoring by chipping a per-fectly
placed shot into the upper
left-hand corner of the goal. The
goalie did not make an attempt on
the ball.
Bob Palmquist, positioned in
the right place, pumped in the
second goal a couple of minutes
later. Hage scored next to make it
3-0 at half.
Midway through the second
half, Hage put in his second tally,
deflecting a shot by Thom. A
couple of minutes later Hage
finished his hat-trick and the
scoring, driving a hard, low shot
past the helpless Concordia
goalie.

After the game, the coach said,
"I don't give Augsburg credit for
the win. .I think we made a
number of mistakes."
Bethel freshman Scott Feltman
started the scoring, knocking in a
rebound 20 minutes into the first
half. But Augsburg took the lead
with two goals in the next five
minutes. Both were scored off
rebounds caused by mix-ups in
front of the net.
Bethel tied it up before half-time
on a penalty kick by Thom.
The penalty kick was needed after
an Auggie defender stopped an
apparent goal by Bohne.
Augsburg put the game away
in the final half, scoring one goal
on a well-placed shot and the
other on a breakaway. The Royals
had numerous opportunities but
failed to capitalize.
